The Disciple
Pastor Muza
POINTS OF INTEREST
As a Pastor, what gives you satisfaction that you
are in the right direction, that you are doing
something right?
When I see the fruits… I have passion for ministry
so I don’t doubt that I have a calling for it. Like
in my current assembly I don’t earn a salary, but
I believe in investing in people. The best investment
is investment in people. You establish the
work and the work you are doing must be appreciated.
It doesn’t come easy so you need to
grow the work. But I get so much fulfilled after
ministering, and the fulfilment I get is more than
a salary. So seeing fruits is fulfilling. I believe in
the process. If you look at my history its mostly
process. So I believe that even in ministry you
must establish the work.
third year there was just a serious turn around in
his life. He is now at UJ. So when I see these
young people discover themselves and
achieve something, I am motivated. I believe
that you are not only touching the mind of a
child but also the spirit.
You take students from different institutions and
different backgrounds, and they join students
here with a different attitude. What do you do to
bring them to the same attitude level?
We set standards and we are very strict. Like
with the Cambridge curriculum there is no automatic
promotion. You must pass the grade you
are in for you to proceed to grade 12. So that
motivates them. They know that you get the external
examination in grade 11 and if you do
not make it, you cannot proceed to grade 12.
Are you teaching any classes at the moment?
I do a lot of guidance and counselling. I call it
character education, something that is missing
in education. There is a saying that ‘talent must
not take you where character cannot sustain
you’. I believe that character is very important
because you have a lot of people with talent
but lack character.
You have such passion for students who attend
your school to achieve great heights, what motivates
that?
I believe every child has got potential that has
not been tapped. It’s like sitting on a gold mine
and some students don’t discover it. Some students
even get surprised with themselves. So,
when one discovers that ‘this is how I’m wired
and this is the potential I have’, that drives me.
For example, there was one young man who
enrolled at our school but, he had serious disciplinary
problems and the parents had given up
on him. He moved from one school to another.
For two years we struggled with him, but in the
The book of Acts 2:17-19; says that in the last
days my sons and daughters will prophesy.
There is a lot of prophecy happening now and a
lot of prophets … what are we to make of all
this?
These are trying and difficult times. One needs
discernment. The fact that one prophesies does
not mean that they are genuine. The prophetic
attracts crowd, but people must discern, not
only discernment but teaching. There is need
for more teaching about the prophetic . The
Lord warns ‘Test spirits’(1John 4:1).False prophets
have gone out and many are being deceived.
People have real problems and need
solutions ;in the desperation they are deceived.
The word clearly says that ‘you shall know them
by their fruits’. Some have the gift but not the
fruit the fruit. So before one even goes to the
‘man of God’ they need to check their lives.
There are genuine shepherds, and people
should be covered by sound ministries.
